Informing employees about expiring passwords

There are different ways to inform employees that their password is going to expire:

  • Users are alerted about their password expiring when they log in to One Identity Manager and can change their password if necessary.
  • For employee-based authentication modules, the system sends reminder notifications in relation to expiring passwords as of seven days in advance of the password expiry date.
    • You can adjust the time in days in the Common | Authentication | DialogUserPasswordReminder configuration parameter. Edit the configuration parameter in the Designer.
    • The notifications are triggered in accordance with the Reminder system user password expires schedule and use the Employee - system user password expires mail template. You can adjust the schedule and mail template in the Designer if required.

For detailed information about the One Identity Manager authentication modules and about editing system users, see the One Identity Manager Authorization and Authentication Guide.

Displaying locked employees and system users

If a user has reached the number of maximum failed logins, the employee or system user can no longer log in to One Identity Manager.

  • Locked employees are displayed in the Manager in the Employees | Locked employees category. An additional message referring to the locked login is also displayed on the overview form for an employee.

  • Locked system users are displayed in the Designer in the Permissions | System users | Locked system users category. An additional message referring to the locked login is also displayed on the overview form for a system user.

You can reset the passwords of employees and system users who have been locked in Password Reset Portal. This unlocks the employees and system users again. For detailed information, see the One Identity Manager Web Portal User Guide and the One Identity Manager Web Application Configuration Guide.
